Secret Jardin is a long running French grow tent maker known for well finished tents in several product lines. The Dark Room line is its premium tent with a heavy frame, the Dark Street line is a compact, lighter option, and the Hydro Shoot line is a value tent aimed at do it yourself growers. Across the range the maker lists light blocking canvas, reflective interiors, lightproof zippers, duct socks and removable floor trays. For a cannabis grower who wants a European made style tent with careful details, Secret Jardin is worth a look. Availability in the US varies, so check which models you can actually buy. Then fill your tent with genetics from our indoor seeds collection. This guide is for adults 21 and older growing where home cultivation is legal.

This is a spec based review. We compared the maker’s published product pages and manuals with what home growers need. We did not run our own test grow, and specs, included parts and model names change by version and region, so check the manufacturer’s current listing before you buy.

The Secret Jardin lineup

Secret Jardin sells several lines, and the names and generations have changed over the years. Here is a simple overview based on the maker’s pages and retailer listings on Oct 29 2026.

Line	Positioning	Notable listed features
Dark Room	Premium	Thick frame tubes, heavy canvas, many ports, current generation listed as DR150
Dark Street	Compact and light	Slimmer frame, smaller sizes for closets and corners
Hydro Shoot	Value and do it yourself	Double flap lightproof zippers, removable tray, duct socks

The model number on most Secret Jardin tents is the footprint in centimeters. A tent named 120, for example, has a footprint of about 120 centimeters, which is close to 4 feet. A 90 is about 3 feet and a 60 is about 2 feet. Heights are usually listed in centimeters too, so convert carefully before you order. One meter is about 39 inches.

Key features

Dark Room: built to carry weight

The Dark Room line is listed with a 25 millimeter frame in its current generation, which is a thick tube for a home tent. That matters if you hang a big LED, a carbon filter and a fan from the top bars. The canvas is listed as heavy and light blocking, and the line has many duct and cable ports. Retailers report that the older DR120 generation was replaced by the DR150, so check which version you are buying.

Dark Street: for small spaces

The Dark Street line uses a slimmer frame, listed at 16 millimeters, and comes in smaller sizes. It suits a closet, a corner or a seedling and clone area. A lighter frame means you should keep hanging weight modest. Read tips for growing weed in tight spaces if you are working with a small room.

Hydro Shoot: value with smart details

The Hydro Shoot line is aimed at growers who want a lower cost tent that still blocks light well. The maker lists double flap lightproof zippers, a removable waterproof tray and duct socks. Double flaps over a zipper help stop light leaks, which matters for photoperiod plants in flower.

Reflective interior

Secret Jardin tents use a reflective interior to bounce light back to the canopy. Keep it clean and wrinkle free. Our guide to reflective materials for indoor growers explains why.

What we like

• Several lines for different budgets and spaces
• Careful details like double flap zippers and duct socks
• A heavy frame on the premium line for growers who hang a lot of gear
• Metric sizing that suits growers who plan in centimeters

What to consider

• US stock can be patchy, and some sizes may only be sold in Europe
• Metric sizes need converting, and a 120 is slightly smaller than a true 4×4
• Model generations change, so older reviews may not match current tents
• The compact line’s slimmer frame is not meant for heavy gear

How to choose a Secret Jardin tent

Start with your light. Pick a tent whose footprint matches the light’s listed flowering coverage. Then check height. Remember that the light, hangers, pots and any stretch during flower all take up vertical space. Next, think about weight. If you plan to hang a heavy fixture, a carbon filter and a large fan, the premium line’s thicker frame is the safer pick. Finally, check ports. You want a high port for exhaust, a low port for intake and enough cable ports for your gear.

Your plant limit matters too. Stay within the number of plants your state allows, and plan your tent around that number. Our post on legal requirements for growing weed plants in your state is a good starting point.

Setting up for best results

A good tent still needs a good setup. These guides cover the basics:

• Cannabis grow tent setup guide for the full step by step build
• Where to put a grow tent for picking a spot
• Inline fan CFM for a grow tent for sizing exhaust
• Passive intake for grow tents for fresh air
• Grow tent fire safety for safe wiring

Before you plant, test for light leaks. Sit inside with the grow light off and the room lights on, close every zipper and flap, and look for bright spots at seams and corners. Tape small leaks from the outside.

Converting metric sizes

Because Secret Jardin lists most sizes in centimeters, a quick conversion saves mistakes. Divide centimeters by 2.54 to get inches, then divide by 12 to get feet. A 60 footprint is about 24 inches, a 90 is about 35 inches, a 120 is about 47 inches and a 150 is about 59 inches. Heights work the same way. A tent listed at 200 centimeters is about 79 inches tall. Also measure your doorway and ceiling before you order, since a tall tent needs clearance above the frame for assembly and for ducting that exits through the roof.

Strains that suit a Secret Jardin tent

• 60 or 90 size tents: Northern Lights Auto or Bubblegum Auto for compact plants
• 120 size tents: White Widow or Master Kush for photoperiod plants you can train
• Tall tents: Super Silver Haze if you want a taller sativa leaning plant and have the headroom
